The Homecoming 2019 concert was a blast due to Daya’s and Saint Motel’s fervent performances.
The show is set to begin at 8 p.m. on Oct. 5 with doors opening at 7 p.m.
During The Midnight Hours set, blocks for expressive solos of the saxophone, the drums, the bass, the keyboard and the trumpet were spontaneously included.
From the very beginning of Cat Power’s own set, deep red lighting bathed the stage and obscured Marshall’s face.
Whoever the sound tech was for this show deserves a promotion.
Slaughter Beach, Dog and more come to Ithaca this week.
The six members put on a great show and the electricity was palpable.
The musical talent gathered at the Ithaca Reggae Festival was stellar.
Day One
You don’t get much respect if you say Kacey Musgraves is the artist you’re most excited to see, I learned on the way to Randall’s Island for the first day of Governors Ball 2019. After entering and passing a monument to the late Mac Miller, I headed to see the goofy, fun indie band Still Woozy. Dressed in a tacky, tucked-in white and blue t-shirt, lead singer and guitarist Sven Gamsky looked pretty much exactly how I thought he would. He and his small but scrappy crew played hits like “Habit” and “Goodie Bag,” as well as a sweet cover of Mac Demarco’s “Still Beating.”
Next came Hippo Campus. It says a lot that, despite the talent that performed after them, it’s still their song “Buttercup” that’s playing in my head as a write this. I was worried they wouldn’t be as good on stage as in the studio, but these Minnesota rockers had their set locked down, playing songs from their new album Bambi as well as older ones like “Suicide Saturday” and “South.” In a similar fashion to Still Woozy, they struck me as being too big for their time slot; a feeling I would end up having about many of the smaller sets this weekend.
In honor of Gov Ball this weekend, here is all you need to know about Friday night’s headliner, Tyler, the Creator.
